I think you are right. I've tried to approach twice since then and set them off, both times with (distant, 400-600m off) DC runs as a result. One of the escorts must have an elite watch crew. I expect this in 42-43, but surprising in October 39.

Getting toward dawn now, so I will either break off -- I mean, who needs this bother 250 west of Gibraltar? -- or go up and try the starboard side tomorrow night.
